Subtle Ways

Knots in my stomach, I wonder how it is I get through the day
I want so bad not to feel insane, but my heart yearns for a taste
If I reached to kiss your lips, would you pull away
This is the issue with confession, and how your shoulder bumps mine
The bus ride feels so long now, with our voices filling the time
Why is it I let my heart get over my head
Why is it I feel attracted to all your subtle ways
This isn't happening, I repeat but the thoughts wont go away
You whisper quietly and yet I don't know what to say
How could I have never noticed you were gay
How come now it's you who has to be the one to say
I'm frozen in fear for not only myself but you
God in this situation I don't know what the fuck to do
I'm so overwhelmed with whats right and what I want
If only it was as simple as taking your hand and whisking us away
Taking us to a place where happiness was the only way
Gazing up at shooting stars, our legs tangled in an embrace
We could make love all night, go on adventures throughout the day
But that isn't reality, my reality is here with you
With you glancing around to make sure no one but me heard you
And I yearn for you to be completely open in the way I am
So that we could walk down the halls holding our hands
You and me together, we could be, so open and free
But instead it's me who is off dreaming
You stand to go and I have to force myself to look away
Sick of these butterflies fluttering up through my veins
I'm stuck here like a bookmark in a page
Reaching out toward you, while you turn away
As I head home, with a confused look on my face
Caught prey to these newfound emotions like a plague
Now everytime I picture you they get in the way
Because girl, you've got me going insane
